Oh turn it in son, HOW MANY TIMES - The players and staff had it written into their contracts that IF the club ever reached the FA CUP FINAL after expenses all profit would be pooled and divded equally. As it was consider such an unlikely event. Graham Moseley owns three properties in Hove - Gary Howlett works at Dublin Airport for what he describes as pin money.
Its all accounted for NOT MISSING. Go down Wilbury Crescent there is some down there.

Where does this 'missing millions' rumour come from ? It's just a rather silly conspiracy theory', Grassy Knoll anyone ?

Broke. Because a fair part of the money was needed to pay for the unrealistic 10 year contracts allegedly given to some players.

Everything has led to where we are now-
There has been some very big "what if's"-
what if-smith had scored
what if-we had 10 more points in 1985
what if-we had won the 1991 play off final
what if-we had lost the 2004 play off final
perhaps the single biggest "what if" was as recently as 2008-what if Mr Bloom had not stepped in to finance Falmer.

Not too many points but It's all about the different possibility's that could have happened.

What if- we had lost at Hereford-
we did not thank god and in relation to Rev's main point i think we could have done more to stay up,28 years may have stretched it a bit.

If we had won the FA Cup, Jimmy Melia would have kept his job for the whole season at least. No way would we have won promotion. His terrible record as a league manager would have been made worse by the distraction of European football.

Where does this idea of missing "millions" come from? I can't remember what I paid for my ticket but I'm sure it wasn't more than £5, so even with a capacity of 100,000, and seat prices being more than I paid to stand, the total gate receipts for the final were probably less than £1m. What would the Albion's share have been after the FA had taken their cut?

We had 2 cup finals though-not many teams get 2 for the price of 1 on their 1st attempt.

Even with the money from the replay, I doubt that the Albion's share amounted to "millions" .
There were no missing millions. As you rightly state the total gate receipts, let alone the Albion's share didn't even come to 'millions'.
Just FYI - The OP has often raised this subject and he's been told time and time again where all the money went. However like a couple of the 'political' posters on here though he's a firm believer in conspiracy theories, and no matter how many times he's told that 2 + 2 = 4 he insists that it's 5. He'll start exactly the same thread in a month or two.
